Project PEACE- Bursting Burdensome Balloons


Every day it's someone's birthday. Today it is March 3rd and already so many celebrations for this whole month have started. March birthdays include Justin Bieber's, Dr. Seuss', Mariah Carey's, Sergio Ramos' as well as my own. With that said, at these celebrations it is not uncommon for balloons to be present at special events.

Something to keep in mind: Latex balloons can be recycled! They also are biodegradable but the shiny, mylar ones are not. Feel free to utilize them again by making them into crafts (scrapbooking! pom-poms! flowers! etc.), deflate them carefully so they can be used again or utilize them for future wrapping paper to wrap gifts such as a bottle of wine for a friend.

In addition, the strings attached the balloons can be dangerous to animals. Be sure to carefully separate the string from the balloon. Whatever you do...DO NOT release them freely into the sky! It's very bad. You wouldn't want an animal to choke on a balloon would you? I know I certainly wouldn't want to be eating a balloon for breakfast.
